Book excerpt: For half a century the New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology has been dedicated to providing an annual in-depth evaluation of an important clinical topic in ophthalmology. These symposia have always been a combination of relevant clinical thought, based on outstanding knowledge, and current research. In 1996 this tradition was continued with the symposium "Peril to the Nerve - Ophthalmology". From the latest discussions in the literature to provocative round tables and clinical controversy presentations, the participants discussed clinically useful topics in these fields. The panelists in the glaucoma segment were Drs Michael Kass, Donald Minckler, Paul Palmberg, Harry Quigley, George Spaeth and Thom Zimmerman; those in the neuro-ophthalmology section were Drs Ronald M.Burde, Joel S. Glazer and Normal J. Schatz. This volume contains the updated papers and reports of the round table discussions at this meeting. It can be considered a "state-of-the-art" publication.

Book Synopsis Glaucoma: An Open-Window to Neurodegeneration and Neuroprotection by : Carlo Nucci
Download or read book Glaucoma: An Open-Window to Neurodegeneration and Neuroprotection written by Carlo Nucci and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2008-11-05 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glaucoma is one of the main causes of blindness throughout the world. It is characterized by death of the retinal ganglion cells, which is associated with loss of the axons making up the optic nerve. Recent studies have demonstrated support for the classification of glaucoma as a degenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS), leading researchers to look at identifying neuroprotection strategies for the treatment of this disease, like those used for other degenerative diseases of the CNS. This book will provide an in-depth examination of the most recent findings regarding glaucoma, including risk factors, diagnosis, clinical monitoring, treatment, and above all, the need for treatment based on the concept of neuroprotection. A large part of the book is devoted to research related to this new approach to the treatment of glaucoma. Describes the most recent developments on neuroprotection of the optic nerve, including experimental models now used and clinical protocols Discusses new strategies for the prevention of neuronal injury in glaucoma patients Focuses on evidence-based risk factors, innovative diagnostic aspects and advanced medical/surgical treatment of glaucoma

Book Synopsis Focus on Glaucoma Research by : Steve M. Reece
Download or read book Focus on Glaucoma Research written by Steve M. Reece and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glaucoma is a group of disorders characterised by an abnormally high intraocular pressure (IOP), which can damage the optic nerve and lead to blindness. Glaucoma occurs in several forms: chronic open-angle (primary), acute angle-closure, congenital (inherited as an autosomal recessive trait), and secondary to other causes. Chronic open-ended glaucoma constitutes about 90% of the instances of glaucoma and is frequently familial in nature. Congenital glaucoma can be triggered by varicella, mumps, parvovirus, HIV and herpes among others. Secondary glaucoma can result from trauma and drugs such as steroids. This new book includes within its scope the prevention, pathogenesis, etiology, diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma. International research efforts are reported.

Book Synopsis Glaucoma in the New Millennium by : Jonathan D. Nussdorf
Download or read book Glaucoma in the New Millennium written by Jonathan D. Nussdorf and published by Kugler Publications. This book was released on 2003 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 50th annual symposium of the New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology was held from April 6th – 8th, 2001. This was the Academy’s ninth meeting devoted to glaucoma and consisted of formal lectures, round table discussions, and workshop presentations. The New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology maintains a strong tradition of providing the ophthalmologist with a venue for learning from exceptional mentors and innovative leaders. Inspection of the list of Academy meetings pertaining to glaucoma will highlight the fact that we have been privileged to have outstanding contributors and notable repeat performers (Appendix 1). The first symposium of this Academy was held in 1952 and, with its focus on glaucoma, the contributors were Sir Stewart Duke-Elder, Paul A. Chandler, MD, and Peter C. Kronfeld, MD. The first three lectures from that 1952 meeting were presented by Sir Stewart Duke-Elder and are published for the first time, from a copy of the original transcript, in this collection of papers. I think you will find his discussion of ‘simple’ and ‘congestive’ glaucoma enlightening and instructive. The Program Committee chairpersons, Claude F. Burgoyne, MD and Katherine Loftfield, MD, were instrumental in putting together a strong assembly of contributors and a well-balanced meeting. Special acknowledgment for their hard work in organizing this symposium goes to committee members Rameish Ayyala, MD, Annemarie Etienne, MD, Kenneth Haik, MD, Jill B. Koury, MD, and Daniel A. Long, MD, and to executive secretaries, Emily Busby and Amber Howell. For his dedicated and thoughtful leadership, much appreciation is given to the president of the New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology, 2000-2002, George S. Ellis, Jr, MD, and to the board of directors. The Academy acknowledges its sponsors for providing unrestricted financial support, which helped to defer the expense of this medical education meeting and subsequent publication. Special thanks go to Peter Bakker at Kugler Publications for his guidance and wisdom, as well as his unending support for the task of publishing this glaucoma specialty symposium. The contributors to this symposium on glaucoma are outstanding. They provided chapters covering a wide range of issues that confront the general ophthalmologist, as well as the glaucoma specialist. Due to an unfortunate circumstance, Chris A. Johnson, PhD, was unable to attend the meeting; however, he was gracious enough to provide his written contribution, which is included in this compilation of papers. You will find that the lectures, round table discussions, and workshop sessions are filled with pearls of wisdom that will help guide you toward a modern, common sense approach in addressing the special needs of your glaucoma patients.

Download or read book Glaucoma written by Franz Grehn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Essentials in Ophthalmology" is a new review series covering all of ophthalmology categorized in eight subspecialties. It will be published quarterly, thus each subspecialty will be reviewed biannually. Given the multiplicity of medical publications already available, why is a new series needed? Consider that the half-life of medical knowledge is estimated to be around 5 years. Moreover, it can be as long as 8 years between the first description of a medical innovation in a peer-reviewed scientific journal and publication in a medical textbook. A series that narrows this time span between journal and textbook would provide a more rapid and efficient transfer of medical knowledge into clinical practice, and enhance care of our patients.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a detailed description in color format of the optic nerve head changes that occur in glaucoma. It explains the normal and variant anatomy of an optic nerve head and why certain discs are more or less likely to develop glaucomatous changes. This book attempts to explain the anatomical basis of common and not so common signs seen in optic nerve head and retinal nerve fibre layer as captured by a digital fundus imaging system and optical coherence tomography. It also includes optic nerve head conditions mimicking glaucoma. The book is relevant for practicing ophthalmologists, vision science researchers, clinical optometrists, postgraduate residents in ophthalmology, sub-specialty fellows as well as general ophthalmologists, neurologists and neurosurgeons.
Download or read book Glaucoma Surgery written by R.N. Weinreb and published by Kugler Publications. This book was released on 2019-10-04 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glaucoma surgery was the topic of the eleventh World Glaucoma Association Consensus meeting. Glaucoma surgery in primary open-angle glaucoma was also the topic of the second Consensus meeting held in 2005. For the current version, angle closure and angle-closure glaucoma, as well as the secondary glaucomas, were also included. But the expansion of the subject matter is not the only reason for the timing of this new Consensus. Perhaps even more important is the explosion of new surgical ideas and techniques, which are revolutionizing the surgical approach to the glaucoma patient. The idea of targeting anatomic outflow and inflow pathways and individualizing care has opened so many new possibilities for improving surgical outcomes. Furthermore, outcomes are no longer only focused on lowering intraocular pressure, but also on enhancing health- and vision-related quality of life. As with prior meetings, it was a daunting task to seek and obtain consensus on a broad subject matter for which there are so many different opinions. As it is unclear how each of us decides how we practice and the evidence to guide us often is sparse, this consensus — as well as the others — is based not only on the published literature, but also on expert opinion. Although consensus does not replace and is not a surrogate for scientific investigation, it does provide considerable value, especially when the desired evidence is lacking. The goal of this consensus is to provide a foundation for glaucoma surgery and how it can be best done in clinical practice. Identification of those areas for which we have little evidence, and therefore the need for additional research, always is a high priority. We hope that this consensus report will serve as a benchmark of our understanding of what is known and what we would like to know. However, this Consensus Report is expected to be just a beginning that will be revised and improved with the emergence of new evidence, and new and improved surgical procedures.
